this v Das Experiment


I saw Das Experiment when i heard about this version of the same experiment. I was really excited for this movie due to the incredible cast. However you can't help but compare the two movies. I feel like i liked each movie in different ways. I feel that Das Experiment took a more "movie type" track in that the experiment escalated to have a more intense climax and took a more cathartic ending. Somehow I enjoyed that more as an audience. However, I thought this movie took a better take on the side of the people running the experiment and how it affected them. I also really enjoyed the conversation between Miller and Angarano's characters on a third person perspective on the experiment at the final scene. I found Angarano's character's perspective on the experiment interesting because i feel like it reflected more on the humanity of Dr. Zimbardo and other people involved in the experiment.

I think the biggest difference is that one is based on a Real experiment, so events might not be that movie like but actually based on reality. Das Experiment is great but then again is based in a hypothetic situation.

Das Experiment was based off a novel that was based on this study. I guess this one's going for a docudrama feel and cutting out the (mostly) fiction aspect.

Jamie Lee Curtis survived Halloween, the Fog, Prom Night and a Terror Train & now she can't poop!
